Re: cable shifter

If you don't want to add eye brows (or avoid scuffing of the paint if you have eye brows) the tongues under the top of the door work very well. The tongues on my CAV were pretty light guage and didn't locate and pull the door top into position too definitively so I fabricated some stronger ones and they worked great. Speed tested to 155mpg - of course, I didn't stick my head out the window to see if the door tops were lifting at speed but they appeared to work from the inside of the car!
